      Satisfying, if you're independently wealthy.

      Pros

      Hy-Vee hires smart young people and many of them stay because there are so many assistant management opportunities. Hy-Vee employees are friendly and welcoming, a joy to be around.

      Cons

      It seems, that because Hy-Vee employs high school students the pay is incredibly low. For an adult with real bills Hy-Vee cannot pay enough. Two younger coworkers divulged their wages the first now makes $8, the second said he was hired for $8 and I was hired for $8.50 and I personally, am struggling to pay bills.

      Pros

      Training and advancement opportunities, friendly yet professional culture, emphasis on healthy lifestyles, decent benefits package, understanding of the importance of a personal life.

      Cons

      Doesn't pay very well, some executives and senior management don't understand how hard everyone works, sometimes too hierarchical with rigid rules of interaction between higher ups and the masses.

      Lots of Opportunity

      Pros

      There are many opportunities to advance at Hy-Vee. As long as you work under the right store director, they can get you where you need to go. Depending on the market and how many stores are in a city, there are always positions open elsewhere for you to explore.

      Cons

      For upper management, the pay isn't comparable to the hours you work. At certain stores and in some situations, they do not consider if you are in school and try to work you until you quit school and just work full time for them.
